This fucks me off sooooooooo much; in NZ there are a lot of (a fuck of a lot) of roads that don’t have overtaking zones for a long way.

Getting an opportunity to overtake the slow prick you have been following for 20 minutes, just to have them speed up…forcing me to go faster than I’m comfortable with, then being in front and have them sitting on your arse for the next 10km, even though you are going faster than before you overtook them…FUCK OFF!!!

This is the only correct answer

And socks…

That is exactly the same for your kids, it is not until their world expands a bit when they are 3-5YO; before that you are literally everything to them.

Even though it is an Australian movie The Castle is pretty good

How would that make him a non-billionare?

He paid $44B for Twitter, even if it completely failed and he could realize no value from any of the assets. $44B is a small portion of his wealth.

You could have most people in a relatively small area with the rest for farming.

There would be little need for the equivalent of roads, almost all travel would be walk or bike. The longest distance between two points is less than 34km. If the main settlement is in a ring around the middle of the cylinder, it is less than 17km to any point.

If we can do B, A doesn’t provide many benefits.

A 1km diameter, 30km cylinder would provide enough area to feed ~140k people. 95km^2 of space.

That is assuming no imported food etc, based on 7000m^2 per person which is almost 2 acres each.

140k people is a small city.

Moldering: “to crumble into dust, to rot”

All the definitions of molding I can find, are about shaping something.

Literally nothing.

Give him a high five and tell him to keep doing what he is doing. Since we invent the time machine, I wouldn’t want to fuck that up. Really I wouldn’t even visit.

I would however be expecting a visit from my future self, to get the details on how to solve global warming and a bunch of other issues.

Colour would like a word with you.

Wouldn’t that be mouldering?

Lathes are serious machines. They require serious caution!

At my previous job, there was a very lucky apprentice; he was working on “the small lathe”; the sleeve on his overalls caught on the work piece. His arm was pulled into the machine the overall sleeve tore as it was being pulled in. He got very nasty friction burns all up the under side of his arm; if the sleeve didn’t tear, at minimum he would have lost the arm…the lathe didn’t stop spinning during the event. He panicked (understandably) and didn’t think to hit the e-stop.

Table saws and lathes…don’t fuck around with them. Powerful tools require serious caution; but they are also very useful when used correctly.

Legend.

Always found that strangely motivating.

You can probably trim that down by one.

• Treat others as you would have them treat you.
• Pursue a useful existence.

But I would also add:

• Treat yourself with genuine respect.

This feeds back into the first point.

Run tasks on a schedule

Termux + syncthing cli + tasker

But this is not a solution for those that you do family tech support for.

I was reminded of the same thing.

It sucks that Syncthing is discontinuing its android app

It would be up near the top of my list.

This is one of the many things I use Syncthing for.
